Their goals differed, but they all had this in common: that the step was first, the road new, the vision unborrowed, and the response they received—hatred”(The Soul of an Individualist). The quote shows that so many men have taken steps towards new things only to have their dreams taken down by the distaste of others. “His vision, his strength, his courage came from his own spirit. A man’s spirit, however, is his self. That entity which is his consciousness.

I do not know if I have ever felt as sorry for a prophet like I do for Ezekiel. I am not sure if this is due to the specific language that he uses or if it is something else, but the way in which God is depicted in these chapters makes him look like a bully. Ezekiel appears to mind his own business and then without any warning, God lays a huge burden of responsibility on his shoulders that he did not ask for. Furthermore, Ezekiel appears to have no choice but to carry out YHWH’s wishes as there is more than one instance where YHWH supposedly uses ropes to bind Ezekiel until his task is complete.

Abraham followed God’s instructions and as he was about to kill his only son, God stopped him because He now realized that Abraham is a God fearing man. God said “By myself I have sworn, says the Lord: Because you have not withheld your son, your only son, I will indeed bless you, and I will make your offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven and as the send that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of their enemies, and by your offspring shall all the nations of the earth gain blessing for themselves, because you have obeyed my voice” (Genesis 22:16-19).

We also see elements of white dominance in the text’s bias towards Marmaduke Templeton and Elizabeth. Within the novel Marmaduke Temple serves as a figure who cannot be questioned, and consists of aristocratic tropes often found in the old world.
